Chronicle of Emperor Jing

Chapter 123 Winter Solstice

Wei Yan took a lot of effort to get this leave.

When he got out of the car, he was blown by the cold wind outside. Under the combination of cold and heat, he only felt that his ears were getting hotter.

He stood outside for a while, and waited for the boiling emotions in his heart to calm down before motioning for people to drive.

With the muezzin's voice of "Get up", the team of Yujia finally started.

The guard of honor for the emperor to travel is very large.

Following the sound of "driving", the imperial guards drove away one by one, followed by the emperor's car, followed by a large number of guards and imperial guards.

"Farewell to Your Majesty!" As soon as the imperial driver moved, all the officials bent over to salute, and then straightened up again and again, watching the emperor's car slowly go away.

When the emperor was far away, they went home by car or horseback.

On this day, Wei Yan escorted the emperor back to the palace, went to the guards to hand over various matters, and went back to the mansion.

There were only two fathers and sons in the Yongning Hou Mansion, so there was no need for a banquet, so he took his son to the Zhongyong Hou Mansion, where Cheng Huan's parents had a lively festival with his family.

The Wei family's ancestral home is in the south, and during the winter solstice in the south, many families will prepare food such as glutinous rice balls.However, the Wei family has lived in the capital for more than a hundred years. After several generations, the taste has changed and the rules have also changed. Tangyuan is still eaten, but the taste can be sweet or salty, meat or vegetarian, with various fillings. There are all kinds of ingredients, which can satisfy the different tastes of the whole family.

These things have been prepared long ago, just waiting to be enjoyed today, so there is no need to say more.

Here in the capital, the custom of winter solstice is to eat dumplings.

There are quite a few members of the Wei family who were born in the capital and grew up in the capital. There are quite a few who have never been to their hometown in the south when they grow up.Since they grew up in Beijing, they inevitably felt that if they didn't eat dumplings, the winter solstice would not be celebrated, so in order to meet the needs of these people, dumplings were also prepared for the dinner at his family.

There is another festive food during the winter solstice, which is also a must-have for many people, that is mutton soup.

If you want to make mutton soup well, you must pay attention to the ingredients. Generally, the first-year-old green goat is used. After the goat is slaughtered, put the mutton bone into the pot first, add water, cook for a day and a night, and then add mutton and several Boil together with herbs to remove the smell of mutton, then cut the cooked mutton into thin slices, put them in a bowl, pour into mutton soup, and enjoy.

This soup is milky white in color, full of aroma, not bad for food and not fishy, ​​very suitable for eating in winter, and mild in nature, it has the effect of warming and tonifying kidney yang.

People in Beijing, no matter they are rich or poor, like to eat mutton every winter.

Poor households don't have much money, so they can't eat it often, but they must prepare some mutton on the day of the winter solstice.

As for the rich and noble families, the purchasing managers of each family will definitely search for high-quality goats everywhere in winter for the owner's family to eat.

The place of origin of the green goat is closer to the capital, and it is the first choice of people in Beijing.It is said that there is also a kind of Cangshan goat, which eats the grass on the top of the mountain in the morning and drinks the spring of Cangshan in the evening, so the meat is more delicious and pure.

However, the origin of this sheep is too far away from the capital, so it is very inconvenient to transport it here. Even if the local officials want to please the emperor, they will occasionally donate.

Restaurants in the capital, of course, also have mutton soup that is called his family, using Cang goat, but most of them are just called, in fact, they still use green goat.

Anyway, unless the diners have been to the local area, most people only hear the name of the Cangshan goat and have not tasted the meat. They will definitely not be able to tell the difference between the two.

Wei's mutton soup uses green goats, but his sheep are not bought from farmers' homes, but raised in their own farms.

It's only the winter solstice now, and the mutton soup has just started to be served, and there is still some stock in the farm. In a month or two, his family's steward will probably have to buy it everywhere.

Naturally, Wei Yan doesn't need to worry about these things, and Wei Minwen doesn't need to worry about them either. The father and son just need to be their dandies, and they can just open their mouths with their clothes and hands.

Of course, at this moment, Wei Minwen, who is leisurely enjoying the happy life of a dandy, must never have imagined that his good days are coming to an end.

On the day of the winter solstice, the Wei family had a family banquet, and there was actually a family banquet in the palace.

The royal family banquet, in addition to the emperor, empress dowager, concubines and princes and princesses, will also attend the close relatives of the royal family, such as the clan kings and their children, the eldest princess and the eldest princess and her children, or An Lehou Uncle Guo will be at the banquet. Speaking of it, it is indeed a family banquet.

The emperor is the first emperor's direct son, but not the only son. He has two younger brothers, who are three or four years younger than him, and they both work in the clan's mansion now.These two princes have more than nobility and lack of real power. They are idle princes.

As for the brothers of the late emperor, some of them were lost in the battle for the throne, some of them were dismissed from afar after ascending to the throne, and some of them were said to be involved in the "rebellion against the king", and those who were abolished as ordinary people survived The lucky ones, among them the unlucky ones, were sent by the queen mother to serve the late emperor underground long ago.

In addition, when the emperor took power a few years ago, he also cut down the prince for various reasons. In today's royal family banquet, everyone gets along absolutely harmoniously. No matter what conflicts there are in ordinary times, they are all in love with each other Everyone in the family carefully flattered the emperor and the empress dowager, and no one dared to say something that displeased the emperor by relying on their seniority.

In this way, even if Wei Yan was not in front of him, Jing Li's winter solstice festival was still lively and lively, and there was absolutely no desolate atmosphere he deliberately created in front of Wei Yan.

The banquet in the palace was nothing more than those things, the people who came and went were familiar people, nothing unusual, although Jing Li liked to listen to flattery, but if she heard too much, it was actually the same thing.

Therefore, his interest was neither good nor bad, and he spent the banquet in a mediocre way.

On this day, when the palace banquet was over, it was getting late. Jingli's second younger brother, the current Zong Renling, caught up with him again and talked to him about the royal family's internal affairs, such as which palace had a baby, where The family's palace is going to marry a daughter-in-law, and when he dismisses the patriarchal decree and returns to his bedroom, it will already be the willow's head on the moon.

"Your Majesty, the Marquis of Yongning is back." As soon as he entered the door, a servant reported to him in a low voice.

Hearing this, Jing Li was taken aback for a moment, then laughed again.

This guy Wei Yan always does things beyond his expectations.

If he is not stupid, he will put others ahead of him from time to time, and he still does it for granted, and he has never repented. If he is really stupid, he will sometimes do such cute things.

Thinking of this, he naturally became happy in his heart, and rushed into the hall excitedly, and found that Wei Yan had already lay down, so he went to wash off the smell of alcohol, and then quietly lay down next to Wei Yan.

Soon, Wei Yan closed his eyes, moved closer to the heat source, dawdled beside him for a while, found a comfortable position, and then stopped moving.

Jing Li couldn't figure out for a while whether he was really sleeping or pretending to be asleep.

However, it doesn't matter if you don't understand this kind of thing, just try it and you'll know it?

With a smile in his eyes, he stretched out his palm and slowly touched Wei Yan's waistline.

Before he finished groping, Wei Yan's breathing became disordered.

Hehe, Wei Yan is an idiot, what's the use of pretending to be asleep, isn't he revealing his secrets?

"Why did you go back to the palace tonight? Did you miss me?" Jing Li leaned into his ear and whispered.

"Your Majesty!" Wei Yan called him softly.

Soon, his voice disappeared between the emperor's lips.

Jing Li originally planned to settle the account with Wei Yan when he entered the palace tomorrow, but Wei Yan was so smart this time, and he returned to the palace tonight, so he naturally wanted to give him some rewards.

As for what he did, whether he was rewarding or punishing, only the two of them knew the matter between pillows, and no one else knew.

"Your Majesty, your body..." After the incident, Wei Yan let out a long breath, the joy in his body gradually subsided, and his mind gradually came to his senses, and he began to have more time to worry about the emperor's body.

The number of times the emperor made love with him was not too many, but he was very patient every time, and he must toss until he begged for mercy. Whether this is okay or not is really an elusive question.

Jing Li touched his palm, was reminiscing the wonderful taste just now, when he heard this question from him, he was silent for a moment before replying: "I'm fine."

He had found out that all the nonsense he had said that day was having a bad effect now.

If Wei Yan always worried about this and that in the future, and used him to take care of his health as an excuse to keep him from enjoying himself, I'm afraid it would be very troublesome.

After all, Wei Yan is really unwilling, he actually can't control Wei Yan, and now, Wei Yan has to be willing to do these things, which is the real way to love.

"I used some mutton soup today, so I can't use up all my strength." With a turn of his mind, he found an upright reason for his vigor just now.

Mutton soup is said to be able to nourish the kidneys, so it has always been loved by everyone.After all, sex in bed is the bliss of the world, how to better enjoy the joy here is an important issue that many people care about.

In line with the principle that medicine is not as good as food, many people use mutton soup as a kidney tonic in winter.

Now that it has been replenished, it will naturally spread out.

Does this reason sound very reasonable?

Hearing what he said, Wei Yan finally fell silent.

He has also heard this saying, as to whether it is useful or not, judging from the inexhaustible strength of the emperor just now, the effect seems to be quite good.

However, his family's mutton soup doesn't seem to have such an obvious effect. Is it because the soup in the palace has different herbs?

Wei Yan thought very seriously.

"Go to bed early, there are still things to do tomorrow." Seeing that Wei Yan stopped talking, Jing Li was obviously persuaded by him again, so he put his arms around his waist, closed his eyes, and hugged him to sleep.
